Re: [LegacyUG] Repository Question
Reproductions of publications can be messy, even in library cataloguing, Library of Congress uses the original publication details as publisher, cataloguing rules say use the publisher who reproduced it. The advice that I keep seeing of being consistent is very practical. I've got no particular pet sourcing style, I just go for what I can reasonably find at the time and unfortunately with Internet sourcing, it may never be found again by others. I do a lot of research at National Library of Australia and National Archives of Australia, I copy what I can reasonably and legally manage, and end up with many things at home. I still try to show as the major repository, where I obtained the original information. Internet based sources I print out where possible, and add to my source any URLs and when I sighted them. I am about to start gathering BDMs from Tasmania, so I really appreciated seeing so many tips on this topic and on validation. Cheers Tracy Have you unlocked the real power of Legacy?

Re: [LegacyUG] Repository Question
An interesting new wrinkle on repositories. I recently extracted from GoogleBooks pages from the 1883 "Transactions of the Medical Association of the State of Alabama" which was filmed from that source in the Library of the City of New York. I got all the credits reported but it certainly doesn't look pretty.

Re: [LegacyUG] Repository Question
Nancy: Until you Santa might bring you a laptop, look into a "Flash Drive" to take on those library trips. many libraries now have computers that allow viewing of microfilm in digital picture format that can be downloaded onto your flash drive! You can transfer the picture to you desktop at home, and paste the picture into Legacy in the Master Source, into Events, etc. Pictures of the actual document really improve the quality of your work.

RE: [LegacyUG] Repository Question
Dave, I have done so and included the text in the detail record as well as the .jpg file (as well as storing back-ups of the files off-site). However, since I would not necessarily 'accept' a .jpg of a document as 'true', I still think it worth showing the repository as the place where I would go to view/get an extract of the original record. But your point is well made.

Re: [LegacyUG] Repository Question
I have a similar process to Jenny and Ron. Usually my repository is where I sent for the copy of the birth, etc. record. I check verified if I have a copy and the file ID is my filing number so I can locate my copy. I also transcribe or summarize the document in the source details so I can refer to it without going to my copy unless I need to. Nancy I agree with Ron. I would use the Office from which exact copies of the originals you hold could be obtained by other people (if I used the Repository field, which I don't usually, naughty me!) and I would indicate that I held a copy of these documents by including their location in my filing system in the File ID field - in Source Details in my case. -- Jenny M Benson _ Find a local pizza place, movie theater, and moreĀ .then map the best route! http://maps.live.com/default.aspx?v=2&ss=yp.bars~yp.pizza~yp.movie%20theater&cp=42.358996~-71.056691&style=r&lvl=13&tilt=-90&dir=0&alt=-1000&scene=950607&encType=1&FORM=MGAC01 Have you unlocked the real power of Legacy?

RE: [LegacyUG] Repository Question
Ron, Ms Mills won't be making any money from me either!; I'm in agreement with you there - so long as I am consistent and my methods are understandable to others. It merely struck me that I could 'lose' all my hard-copy material, so it would be better, for those following after, to record the repository from whence it can be got. I know that repository could change in the future, but at least there is a starting point. My own decision - but others might wish to consider (and possibly reject) my thought process. I'm not intending it to be prescriptive - after all what do I know!
